Find, reserve and pay for parking with ParkWhiz

Xevo and Hyundai will also be developing the Hyundai Digital Wallet payment platform, which stores a customer’s payment information and facilitates secure processing, for a seamless checkout experience to enable in-car commerce.

“We are always learning and exploring with Blue Link, having worked with technologies like Google Glass, Amazon’s Alexa, Google Assistant, Wear OS and Apple Watch,” said Cason Grover, senior group manager, Vehicle Technology Planning, Hyundai Motor America. “Usage-based insurance and in-vehicle payment can offer savings and convenience to our customers, and we look forward to offering these services.”
